Use of Google Adwords conversion tracking
We use the online advertising program "Google AdWords" on our website and in this context conversion tracking (visit action evaluation). Google Conversion Tracking is an analysis service of Google Inc (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; "Google"). When you click on an advertisement placed by Google, a cookie for conversion tracking is stored on your computer.

If you visit certain pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that you have clicked on the ad and have been redirected to this page. Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. It is therefore not possible for cookies to be tracked via the websites of AdWords customers.

This tells us the total number of users who clicked on one of our ads and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, we do not receive any information with which users can be personally identified. The processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR from the legitimate interest in targeted advertising and the analysis of the impact and efficiency of this advertising.
You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you which is based on Art. 6 (1) f GDPR.
You can prevent the storage of cookies by selecting the appropriate technical settings in your browser software. However, we would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent. You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics.
You can also deactivate personalized advertising for you in the Google advertising settings. You can find instructions on how to do this at https://support.google.com/ads/answer/2662922?hl=de In addition, you can deactivate the use of cookies by third-party providers by visiting the deactivation page of the Network Advertising Initiative at https://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/ and implement the further information on the opt-out mentioned there.

This function is used to target visitors to the website with interest-based advertising on the Facebook social network.
The Facebook remarketing tag has been implemented on the website for this purpose. This tag establishes a direct connection to the Facebook servers when you visit the website.

Use of the Google "+1" button
This website uses the "+1" button of the Google Plus social network of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, California, 94043 USA (hereinafter "Google"). When you access a page on our website with the "+1" button, a connection to the Google servers in the USA is established and the button is displayed on the page by notifying your browser. Both your IP address and the information about which of our pages you have visited are transmitted to the Google server. This applies regardless of whether you are registered or logged in to Google Plus. Transmission also takes place for users who are not registered or not logged in. The "+1" button is not used to record your visits to the Internet. Google does not permanently log your browsing history when displaying a "+1" button and does not evaluate your visit to a page with a "+1" button in any other way. Google stores data about your visit for about two weeks for system maintenance and troubleshooting purposes. However, this data is not structured according to individual profiles, user names or URLs and is not forwarded to us. If you are also a member of Google Plus and are logged into Google Plus at the time you use the plug-in, the information collected about your visit to the site will be linked to your Google Plus account and made known to other users. Even in the case of interactions that are possible with the various Google plug-ins, the corresponding information about you is collected, transmitted to Google and stored. You can view an overview of the different types of Google plug-ins here: https://developers.google.com/+/web/

If you have made your profile publicly accessible in the Google Plus settings, your "+1" can be displayed by Google as references together with your profile name and your photo in Google services, such as in search results or in your Google profile, or in other places on websites and advertisements on the Internet. If you do not want Google to assign the information collected directly to your Google Plus profile, you must log out of Google Plus before visiting our website.
